Description: usability issue. unable to copy/cut selected text from right-click contextmenu after drag selection Steps to Reproduce: 1.Type some text 2.Select text by mouse drag 3.Right-click to popup contextmenu Actual Results: The selection will be collapsed. I cannot copy/cut the selected text. Expected Results: The selection should be kept. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Build Id: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+log/f654817fb68d6d4600d7d2f6b647e47729f55f15 OS: Windows10.0 Build 19045
FYI, WordPad.exe and Notepad++.exe works as expected.
Just after drag, the cursor is out of the selection, moving it a bit into the selection, it works fine for me.
No problem for me in: Version: 7.6.3.0.0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ba808a28f5ea365eaf8fe5d9c7c91b417633d75f CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Just like m.a.riosv said, depending on where it is dropped, the cursor might not end up above the active selection, which might explain it. But the right-click fails for you even if the cursor is clearly on the selection? Can you maybe share a video of it? And please share the full version information copied from Help > About LibreOffice. Thank you!

It works if right-clicking on the exact selection. However, The I-shaped cursor on the text makes it difficult to point accurately with the mouse.

I can see how right-clicking on the right half of the last character in the selection makes the selection disappear. It is more obvious with a high zoom level, and more problematic for a 1-character selection. Marking as new although I'm not sure if there's a good reason it is this way. Reproduced in OOo 3.3 as well as a recent trunk build: Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ff9c8b62c1015972e9e89799832fa3690dcd46b4 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
That fact that Calc does not have the same problem makes me think it is indeed a bug that needs fixing.
